Glendale Runners
Glendale Runners launched in November 2024 when two certified coaches noticed a gap in their city's running landscape: there were simply no weekday morning run clubs in Glendale. Built on a philosophy of free community wellness with zero fees or barriers, the crew welcomes around ten runners to Adams Square Mini Park every Tuesday at 07:00. The coaches split participants by pace and skill level, creating an inclusive environment that works for everyone, whether you're chasing a personal record or rediscovering your running rhythm before work. After each 4.2-mile run, runners drift toward Kafn Coffee or head straight into their day, knowing they'll be back next Tuesday.
